Chapter 229 Promotion and Fortune

When the shouting subsided a little, Uchiha Gen controlled Susanoo's hands and pressed down, and the scene quickly calmed down.

The black Susanoo quickly disintegrated and turned into black light spots that dissipated in the air. Gen Uchiha's figure moved and landed on the ground again, and gave Setsuna a wink.

Instantly understood, and said in a deep voice: "Start voting now."

Although the outcome has been determined, the process still needs to be followed so that no mistakes can be made.

After saying that, Setsuna took a step forward and put a piece of paper into the box representing Uchiha Gen.

Next came the three elders, Shisui, and Mikoto, and finally the votes were cast in the order of jounin, special jounin, chunin, and genin.

Judging from the number of people passing by the two boxes, Uchiha Gen's side had an absolute advantage.

After final counting, Uchiha Gen's side indeed won with an absolute advantage, with a ratio of about nine to one.

"Now I declare that the new leader of our Uchiha clan is Uchiha Gen!" Uchiha Setsuna shouted.

"oh……"

Everyone cheered, and then they all bowed and saluted: "Greetings to the Patriarch!"

At this moment, the three elders, Shisui and Mikoto, all bowed their heads and saluted. Looking at the scene, only Gen Uchiha stood upright.

Uchiha Gen closed his eyes slightly and enjoyed the moment, then opened his eyes and raised his hands, saying in a deep voice: "Everyone, please get up."

"Thank you, Patriarch." Everyone said in unison.

"Lord Patriarch."

In an instant, Uchiha held the Uchiha fan in his hands and sent it to Uchiha Gen. He lowered his head and bent his back slightly.

"Sorry to trouble you, Great Elder."

After being polite, Uchiha Gen stretched out his right hand to grab the Uchiha fan, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

After going around and around, the Uchiha fan finally fell into his hands.

Dispelling the emotion in his heart, Gen Uchiha said in a deep voice: "Follow me."

"yes."

The Uchiha senior officials, the captain of the police department, and the Uchiha jounin followed Gen Uchiha's footsteps into Nanga Shrine and worshiped according to the fixed etiquette.

After the sacrificial process is completed, the succession ceremony of the clan leader is officially completed.

After the ceremony, all the assembled Uchiha ninjas dispersed and went home. Uchiha senior officials walked at the back, surrounded by Uchiha Gen.

"Is the Great Elder interested in becoming a deputy minister of the Police Department?"

"I think the two deputy ministers are still a little missing."

Uchiha Narizawa and Uchiha Yasunari's faces stiffened when they heard this. They had just become clan leaders and they had to divide their power?

This doesn't seem to be too much.

Just dividing their power without taking away their power is enough to give them face.

The leader of the Uchiha clan and the head of the police department have always been one and the same. They only need to report to the Hokage and go through the process.

As long as the Hokage doesn't break up with the Uchiha clan, there is no possibility of rejecting this report.

The expansion of the establishment does not require the consent of the Hokage and other high-level officials. The police department's finances are very independent, and the village's allocation is just a token of appreciation.

If the Hokage and other Konoha senior officials don't agree, then the police department can do it themselves, just in name only.

Financial independence, if the person in charge is more assertive, there will be a lot of room for maneuver.

The old era is over and the new era is coming. Uchiha Gencai does not want to be a clay puppet at the Konoha Ministerial Conference.

Unlike Fugaku, he was not afraid of the top management of Konoha headed by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Isn't this not good?" Setsuna was about to welcome him but refused.

"What's wrong?"

"As the saying goes, if there is an old man in a family, if there is a treasure, the police department needs an experienced veteran to take care of it."

"Second Elder, Third Elder, what do you think?"

"yes."

"yes."

These two people should not dare to rebel now, for fear that the anger of the new official's appointment will continue to burn on their heads.

"Then I'll be shameless." Setsuna said with a disrespectful look.

"Shisui, come and be a squad leader."

Zhishui was slightly startled when he heard this, and said somewhat unconfidently: "Can I do it?"

"Besides, I have a mission to carry out."

"You can learn slowly."

"As for the fact that you can leave matters to the deputy captain to handle during the mission, it won't hinder anything."

Among the Jonin brought out by Fugaku's mission, there were two squad captains and one deputy captain.

Uchiha Gen decided to decide on one, and the remaining two would compete fairly. Anyway, with Shisui's military exploits, strength, and reputation, no one dared to object to the airborne landing.

"Okay then." Zhisui nodded slightly.

"Sister Mikoto is a woman, but it's a pity that she has to take care of two little ones. It's hard enough, so it's hard to go out and do things."

Mikoto smiled slightly and said, "I haven't done anything for a long time. I might not be used to it if I come out to do things."

"The clan leader's residence should be changed, otherwise it will not be consistent with his status." Uchiha said instantly.

"No, I live well." Gen Uchiha waved his hand.

"If you continue to live there, how can we old guys be embarrassed?"

The second elder and the third elder heard the words and quickly agreed.

Their residence is much more luxurious and spacious than Uchiha Gen's residence, which is not appropriate.

"It would be troublesome for me to live in a mansion that is too big for me."

"It's nothing. The clan just sends people to settle in. Moreover, sooner or later, the clan leader's mansion will be filled with new people, so we need to prepare for a rainy day."

"The old house is still preserved. The clan sends people to clean it regularly. The clan leader can go back and stay for a while if he wants to live there."

"What the Great Elder said is absolutely true," said the Second Elder.

"That's how it should be. Patriarch, please don't refuse."

"On the day of the housewarming, you must inform us and ensure that you will give us a generous gift." The third elder said.

If you are on the wrong team, you will have to bleed a lot if you want to live a better life in the future.

Fortunately, Chengze's blood must be thicker than his, which makes it more comfortable.

"That's...ok."

As expected, promotion is often associated with making a fortune, and he got a house in a super-large luxury community in the core area of ​​Konoha, followed by a housewarming gift.

If you are on the wrong team, don’t all those who are motivated and understand the world have to show off?

This does not include all the benefits in the future. No wonder everyone loves promotion. There are so many overt and covert benefits.

"It's better to choose a different day than to hit it. I think we should take the patriarch to see the new mansion now?" said the second elder.

Wow, this attitude changed so quickly.

The third elder felt contempt in his heart, but said: "That's exactly how it should be, that's exactly how it should be."

"There's no need to go, Sister Mikoto. There are two little ones at home who need to be taken care of."

"Thank you, Patriarch." Mikoto bowed slightly.

"It's too foreign. It's too foreign."

"We are all acquaintances, so don't call me "adult" from now on. I am the youngest here, so from now on I can just call you the clan leader."

The second elder and the third elder immediately flattered him after hearing this, and they were quite competent, and they didn't sound disgusting at all.

Uchiha smiled and said nothing for a moment, feeling happy in his heart.

It would be the best outcome for one party to relent and the other to accept it. He didn't want to see the Uchiha fighting among themselves.

Shisui was still not used to this kind of scene, but he didn't say anything and tried to adapt.

After Mikoto left, the group took Gen Uchiha to visit the new mansion.

It was a large house located on the southwest edge of the Uchiha clan. It had an antique look, with carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions, rockeries, running water, bamboo forests and lotus ponds.

Naturally, it was impossible to build such a house in a short time. This house was originally the property of the Fugaku clan chief. Apart from being a little remote, it had no shortcomings.
